THE IRRIGATION AGE. 



F. E. & P. A. MYERS. 



In this issue we are presenting the portraits of 

 Messrs. F. E. & P. A. Myers, of the firm of F. E. 

 Myers ,& Brother, Ashland, Ohio. Both of these gen- 

 tlemen are thoroughly well-known throughout the Unit- 

 ed States in the implement and accessory lines, F. E. 

 Myers being at the present time president of the Na- 

 tional Association of Implement and Vehicle Manufac- 

 turers. This firm has developed within the past twen- 

 ty-five years from one of small magnitude to one of 

 the leading firms in the world. This splendid devel- 

 opment has been due mainly to the remarkable energy 



SKA HOARD AIR LIXE MAGAZINE. 



One of the handsomest and possibly the mo<t costly 

 pieces of literature ever issued by a railroad is the spe- 

 cial southern edition of the Seaboard Air Line Magazine. 



It is xnique in that it contains absolutely no ad- 

 vcrtising, is practically free from reading matter, and 

 embodies numerous full page and half page photo- 

 gravures tlje most exquisite examples of the modern 

 printer's art, each one of them a gem and each worthy 

 of framing. Across the book-sellers' counters tin? vol- 

 ume would easily command fifty cents per copy and 

 will grace any drawing-room table. There is hardly a 

 man or women in the United States who would not

and great business foresight of F. E. Myers, the head 

 of the concern, who is generally recognized through- 

 out the country as one of the leading men in the imple- 

 ment field. He has been ably seconded by Mr. P. A. 

 Myers. 



In a recent issue of an Ashland, Ohio, paper we 

 find an extended notice of the fourth annual picnic 

 given by the employes of F. E. Myers & Brother. This 

 picnic is an annual event and this year proved a com- 

 plete success, there having been nearly 3,000 in attend- 

 ance. It was held on Silver Lake near Ashland. The 

 consideration given F. E. Myers & Brother by their em- 

 ployes and friends is mutually complimentary, indi- 

 cating clearly the good fellowship that prevails, and 

 the proportions of their business accruing very largely 

 from close application and judicious advertising. 



spend a fascinating hour or two in examining the beau- 

 tiful illustrations. 



There is an entirely distinct and separate pamphlet 

 describing the Land of Manatee, and which is sent 

 out accompanying the special southern edition of the 

 magazine. 



From the former one learns that the Land of 

 Manatee is the most beautiful section of the world 

 and but recently discovered by the Seaboard. The cli- 

 mate is delightful, the atmosphere salt-laden and per- 

 fumed by thousands of blossoming orange, lemon, 

 grape-fruit and guava trees, and the most beautiful 

 and fragrant of flowers. It is a land of ideal living, 

 perfect health; a land of plenty, where crime, trouble 

 and ill health are unknown. The entire set of booklets 

 can be had by application to Mr. J. W. White, general 

 industrial agent, Portsmouth, Va. Ten cents should 

 be enclosed for postage.
